The face of tomorrow
Young Kenya, the face of tomorrow’, is a six part series meeting tomorrow’s young leaders. We travelled through Kenya to meet young Kenyans and find out what they care most about, what their hopes and dreams are for the future.
Lawrence Baraka is a young creative who taught himself to sew with youtube videos, Racheal believes in the power of communication and wants to become a voice from the rural communities, Danson is working at becoming a Kenyan computer wizard, Sarah travelled far North to be inspired by sustainability, Somalian student Abdikader is determined to be a doctor, and 16 year old Michelle has a clear vision for her future.
In this episode, we explore their thoughts on Travel and leisure.
I enjoy cooking and eating rice, my favourite.

Bringing Kenya to Norway through cuisines has been something that I also try to do. Ugali and eggs and sukuma wiki that’s the best dish ever, they just go well together.

I love this country because of its diverse culture. The food always just reminds me of my grandparents, my ancestors, and when I’m eating the food I can just feel where I’m coming from the clothes, the beads, everything about it, the animals, it’s so beautiful.
Michelle Mukabana, 16

We moved with my whole family from Somalia to Kakuma in 2007, I have three brothers and one sister at home. Alili and Dawood are footballers like me also, the three of us play soccer, football. Just when we meet, we practice together, we just build a team.

I really want to go to many countries. Canada is a country that I’ve always wanted to visit, I just have that feeling that I really want to go there, I really want to experience life there.

I’ve come to realise if you really want to enjoy just being in Norway just make some effort it’s all that they need, you don’t really need to speak fluently because you’re not native.
